Abstract
A data-changing request is received on a first data source system. Metadata for a data source object associated with the request is obtained. The request is executed on a second data source system and results are obtained. A selection between multiple replication processes is made based on the metadata and the results. The selected process is performed on each of the remaining data source systems to synchronize/replicate data changes on the remaining data source systems. In an embodiment, bidirectional and concurrent data connections are permitted to a source object for one data source system and a replicated version of the source object on a different source system. In an embodiment, each data source system includes an agent that establishes an out-of-band connection to a synchronization/replication server, such that synchronization/replication is processed by the server without an affirmative connection being made from the data source systems to the server.
